FOUND: Recipe For A Happy Family – 1972

I found this “Recipe For A Happy Family” today while looking through an old community cookbook published in Mica Creek BC in 1972 by The Royal Purple Lodge #325. I think that although times have changed so much in the last 49 years since this was published, for many, this is a good recipe.
